At 10V input 20V output and 90% efficiency this would be 0.22A ripple. $$ L = \frac{ 10V \times (20V - 10V)}{0.22A \times 250kHz \times V_O} \approx 100uH $$ ## Maximum Switch Current To find the switch current we will first calculate the duty cycle required to produce the required output voltage, when we are working of the minimum input. $$ \delta = 1 - \frac{V_I_M \times \nu}{V_O} = 1 - \frac{8V \times 0.9}{20V} = 0.64 $$ Where $\nu$ is the minimum efficienecy as we want to compensate for power loss.
